Lin Wanwan followed Xiao Chong up the mountain, feeling very anxious.
What does Xiao Chong mean?
Have you passed the test or not? In ancient times, a single woman disappeared for a day and a night, and she was able to get through it so easily without any explanation?
Did Xiao Chong guess something? Or did he make up some other weird plot for me? Why did he know that I was lying to him before he even finished listening?
Sure enough, it is not easy to deceive people who are smart, but the people of Linjiazhuang are cute.
After a while, the two of them walked out of the forest one after another, and suddenly met the snow-white Xiao Yixun standing silently on the edge of the forest, which shocked Lin Wanwan.
"You...why are you silent?" Lin Wanwan asked her.
Xiao Yixun said in a very dissatisfied tone: "I've been waiting for you for a long time! You won't leave after he goes in! I heard it all!"
Lin Wanwan and Xiao Chong were both embarrassed by her straightforward words. The former coughed slightly, then he looked around and said, "I've made you worry, how is little Qingyu? I didn't go back, so she wasn't crying, right?"
?”
"Little Qingyu, Xiao Qingyu, Xiao Qingyu! You know Xiao Qingyu, hum!" Xiao Yixun stomped his foot unhappily, "I don't care about her!"
Lin Wanwan was sure that this guy's second personality had come out again. Now he was the poisonous king with jealousy, treating her as his mother and competing with Xiao Qingyu for favor.
Forget it, don't argue with people with five-year-old minds.
After walking for a while, Lin Wanwan saw Kunlun, Sun Cheyao, Lin Mengbo and others one after another, as well as many bad guys and government servants in uniforms. This battle was really big, and it looked like it covered the entire mountain.
It’s covered.
Kunlun stepped forward and was about to kiss Lin Wanwan's feet to confess. Lin Wanwan hurriedly stopped him and comforted him with his words: "My good Kunlun, this is not your fault, you don't have to blame yourself."
After hearing what Lin Wanwan said, Kunlun straightened up.
After walking down the hillside, Lin Wanwan met Patriarch Lin and others again. Patriarch Lin kept asking questions: "Wanwan, what danger did you encounter while collecting medicine yesterday? Were you injured? Was there an assassin?"
Lin Wanwan quickly replied: "It's okay, it's okay. Uncle Patriarch, I'm okay. It's just that I was so excited when I saw a wild ginseng yesterday that I wanted to dig it up but ran away. I chased and chased and chased, and then I got lost and even put the herb in the box.
All lost."
"It's okay, it's okay! You can't catch the old man's ginseng that has become essence." Chief Lin said fearfully, "It's better not to go out to collect medicine by yourself in the future. You can teach Meng Bo and the others to help you collect it."
.”
Look, no matter how bizarre what she said, the tribesmen would always automatically patch her up.
Lin Wanwan said: "That's not necessary. This is also part of the experience of a herb collector. The patriarch is relieved."
When he reached the place where horses were tied up beside the mountain road, Xiao Chong saluted Lin Wanwan and said, "Since my cousin is safe and sound, Xiao Chong will take his leave."
Lin Wanwan quickly returned the gift: "Thank you, cousin. But why don't you go back to Linjiazhuang with me and have dinner before leaving?"
Xiao Chong said casually: "No need, I will come back another day. There are so many people and we must take them back as soon as possible."
Patriarch Lin and others naturally followed suit and saluted Xiao Chong: "Farewell to Xiao Ming Mansion."
After the two groups separated, Lin Wanwan shouted to the tribe: "This time I have made everyone worried. Go back and treat everyone to beef brisket noodles!"
"Ouch! There's beef brisket noodles to eat! That's great!" Lin Mengjin and several other people shouted.
The people of Linjiazhuang happily gathered around Lin Wanwan to go home, and Patriarch Lin did not object to Lin Wanwan's extravagance this time.
After all, many tribesmen have not slept for a moment since last night. Not to mention having a good meal, they have not even drank a few sips of water. They have been searching for traces of Lin Wanwan on various mountain tops.
Xiao Chong had written a letter from Heng Wu and asked Hai Dongqing to deliver it to Fei Fei.
As soon as he got the news, he rushed over with his troops, but he didn't sleep a wink all night.
Huanong Yunshang and several other maids were waiting for the news at home. Their eyes were red and swollen from crying. They cried with joy when they saw Lin Wanwan's safe return.
Lin Wanwan hugged Xiao Qingyu who was lying on her and cried loudly, comforting her. Xiao Yixun stood aside for a while, and then suddenly rushed forward, hugged Lin Wanwan, and started arguing with Xiao Qingyu on Lin Wanwan's body.
Neither of the two little guys was convinced by the other, and the noise drove away the sadness and grievances.
After everyone had finished a bowl of hot beef brisket noodles and dispersed to go home and go to bed, Lin Wanwan called a few maids to announce to them that she had received a letter from her senior brother and that she would be away for a few days and asked them to take care of her home.
Xiao Qingyu and Xiao Yixun were naturally dissatisfied, but how could the two children fight against the adults? Lin Wanwan took care of it.
Whenever she does this kind of thing, Lin Wanwan must take Kunlun with her, and it is the same this time. However, in order to stay in a high-end guest house in Haicheng, Lin Wanwan decided to take Huanong with her.
That night, Lin Wanwan took Kunlun and Huanong to the South Pier in a small boat rowed by Lin Mengbo, then chartered a large boat to go to Haicheng.
After hearing the commotion, the Linjiazhuang militia offered to send Lin Wanwan away in a large ship, but Lin Wanwan declined.
On the other side, Xiao Chong and his team were waiting to return to the county government office in Xiaoxi Town. Xiao Ce was responsible for handing out hard-earned money to those who participated in the search operation, while Xiao Chong and Dugu Di returned to the backyard lobby first.
After sitting down, Xiao Chong began to make tea. Dugu Di said to Xiao Chong: "Zifang, are you attracted to Lin's cousin?"
Xiao Chong avoided answering and asked instead: "Brother Xiwen hasn't slept all night, can your body still bear the food? Do your eyes still hurt? Why don't you rest early after dinner."
Dugu Di continued: "The Lin family's status is low. Even if they were granted the title of Lord of the Township, it would be no big deal. They can't join your Xiao family, and it's hard to be a concubine."
Xiao Chong raised his eyes and said coldly: "I naturally make my own decisions on my own affairs. Xiwen, why do you have to say disappointing things? This is not like you."
Dugu Di smiled quietly and didn't say anything more. He just wanted to stop talking about some matters. They were all royal family members, and they all understood the rules and regulations in the family even if they didn't explain them.
The Tang Dynasty paid great attention to the inheritance of family clans, among which the Five Surnames and Qiwang were even looked down upon by the royal family.
Zheng Hao, the number one scholar in a certain imperial examination, was so proud that he had a horse hoof disease, so he rushed home to marry the daughter of the Lu family of Fan Yang, who was engaged. As a result, the officer Bai Minzhong messed up the mandarin duck genealogy. After becoming the consort, he hated the matchmaker Bai Minzhong all his life, and went to the matchmaker whenever he had the opportunity.
Trap him to death.
It can be seen that the hatred of not being able to marry Lu's daughter is so sworn in his heart. What is a princess? How can she be compared with Lu's daughter.
The Xiao family is the first of the four major surnames in Jiangnan, and its ancestors are from the royal family. Li Shimin wants to marry his eldest daughter, Princess Xiangcheng, to Xiao Rui, Xiao Chong's uncle, who is older than Li Shimin himself. This shows how noble the Xiao family is.
The Lin family has no known ancestors, and now has no successors. The direct lineage has withered, and now there is only an upstart rural monarch left. How to match the direct son of the Xiao family in Nanlanling?
Moreover, Xiao Chong's reputation resounded throughout Chang'an, and he had been watched by many people for a long time. As for the important matter of marriage, his parents ordered a matchmaker to tell him that he would either not marry a wife, or if he wanted to marry, it would be impossible for him to marry a girl from a poor family.
